Chapter 1591: What Is an ID Card?
“A smartphone?” Shangguan Yang was interested. “Can you really contact other people from a distance?”
“Sure.” Gu Ning nodded, then said to Leng Shaoting, “Shaoting, you can walk a few meters away from us, then call me.”
“No problem.” Leng Shaoting agreed, and walked a few meters away from Gu Ning and Shangguan Yang before he called Gu Ning. Once he called Gu Ning, Gu Ning’s phone vibrated.
Shangguan Yang felt it was quite strange and new when he saw the characters on a bright screen in Gu Ning’s hand. Afterwards, Gu Ning picked up the call and put it on speaker, then both of them could hear Leng Shaoting’s voice.
“Wow, it’s amazing!” Shangguan Yang exclaimed.
“Can you hear me?” Shangguan Yang suddenly shouted to the phone, in case Leng Shaoting couldn’t hear his voice.
“Of course I can,” Leng Shaoting said.
“Jesus, I can’t believe it. It’s so unbelievable,” Shangguan Yang said.
“There is plenty more unbelievable stuff in the new world, and we have enough time to explore it,” Gu Ning said with a broad smile. “Look, this is a green button, and you can press it once so that other people won’t hear your conversation.”
Saying that, Gu Ning moved the call off the speaker and pressed the phone on Shangguan Yang’s ear, then Leng Shaoting said a few sentences on the phone.
Shangguan Yang was excited that he could really hear Leng Shaoting from the phone. He was like a kid now, which was quite funny.
“It’s so cool. Can I have one?” Shangguan Yang said.
“Sure, but we need to go to the city to buy a phone,” Gu Ning said.
She already had the plan to buy a phone for Shangguan Yang, so that it would be convenient for them to contact each other. They didn’t live together, and Leng Shaoting arranged Shangguan Yang to live in a siheyuan.
There were many green plants around the siheyuan, making it a good place for an old man to live. Leng Shaoting’s siheyuan was a private one, and no visitor was allowed to come, so it was very quiet.
“Great!” Shangguan Yang beamed.
After that, they walked together towards Leng Shaoting.
Gu Ning used to plan to register for a new phone number with her ID card, because Shangguan Yang didn’t belong to this age and he didn’t have an ID card.
However, Leng Shaoting thought that it was very easy to solve this problem. “I can make a fake id for my teacher in the system of the Public Security Bureau, because it’ll be more convenient for him to live here if he has an ID card.”
Leng Shaoting only needed to make a call to solve this problem. And since Shangguan Yang was his private teacher, he was more than willing to help him.
“That’ll be perfect!” Gu Ning said.
“What is an ID card?” Shangguan Yang asked with curiosity.
“It’s something we use to prove our identities nowadays, and it’s very important in our daily life. There is a department of our government today called the Public Security Bureau, and it has all the information of each citizen’s identity,” Gu Ning said.
It was hard for her to explain it clearly to Shangguan Yang, because Shangguan Yang was an old man from hundreds of years ago.
“Really?” Shangguan Yang was amazed again. Everything was new to him.
“Yeah, and there are surveillance cameras everywhere to protect citizens, so you must remember not to use your magic here. The Public Security Bureau is responsible for catching criminals if you encounter any bad people,” Gu Ning said.
She had to remind Shangguan Yang not to use his magic as he wanted, because it was unacceptable in modern society.
Shangguan Yang was curious about surveillance cameras too.
“What do they look like?” asked Shangguan Yang.
Gu Ning then took out her phone and showed him some pictures of surveillance cameras and the videos recorded by them.
Shangguan Yang learned a lot about surveillance cameras, and became more curious about them.
